Mike, That sounds to me as though you have the input set for MIC rather than line in, or something similar.
First I would suggest using Line In and use DATA mode (AFSK A submode), select Line In in the MIC SEL menu. Set the K3 into TX TEST (or set the power down and operate into a dummy load) - set MMTTY into transmit, then -- Adjust the line out and Wave sliders on your soundcard to about 2/3 of full scale. Then adjust the MIC Gain (now actually Line In) to illuminate 4 bars on the ALC meter with the 5th bar flashing - ignore the conventional "wisdom" given for data mode setup (no alc indication) - the K3 is different, the - the 1st 4 bars of the ALC meter do not indicate ALC at all, they are there to help you adjust the audio level. The 5th bar indicates the onset of ALC 73, Don W3FPR On 9/4/2012 4:31 PM, Mike Sanders wrote: > Well, Only days old here the new K3 is still challenging > me. Lots of fun without doubt.
